Let me introduce myself, Tom Fox, the newly elected president of the AMGA for 2023.  I want to personally thank all of you for your membership and support of the AMGA, and I hope this next year will be very successful and enjoyable for all our members.  Winter is here, and with it the holidays; please be safe in all your travels and enjoy them with friends and family.

We had our elections, and the board officers and members are:  Bruce Ripko – Vice President; Randy Gray – Treasurer; Clay Harris – Secretary; Jeff Ford – Communications; Mark Wise – Membership; Joe McCubbin – Snowcapper Chairman; Dean Goupil – Co-Chairman; Jim Foreman – Lonesome Pine Chairman; and Steve Ciulla – Co-Chairman.  Other members include Chris Goff, Lawrence Davis, Bob McWilliams, and Bill Lucy.  This is a great group of experienced people and I look forward to working with them to help our members enjoy their golf at ALG&CC.

We held our Turkey Shoot at the end of October; the weather cooperated and we had a wonderful time.  We had 47 participants in the tournament, with everyone winning something and then enjoying a lunch afterwards. The winners were: Gary Mackay – first, Ron Travis – second, Jack Spence – third, Doug Jones – fourth, and Bill Lucy – fifth.  

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year.

Sincerely,
Tom Fox - President
AMGA
